The goal of the Affiliates in Action (AIA) conference is to provide parent group leaders across the country tangible resources they can use to improve their service delivery. Whether you represent a small parent group run out of your home or a large group with office space and paid staff, there is sure to be something valuable for everyone who attends.

Years of Great Experience in One Room
The conference will focus on areas of strengths and weaknesses that are common in most Down syndrome parent organizations. Group leaders will share their perspectives on a variety of topics.

Endless possibilities for growth will result from these shared experiences. Groups will bring samples of their publications and programs to share with those in attendance.

Networking
Where else will you have the opportunity to meet and spend significant time with other parent group leaders?

Facilitated plenary discussions and breakout sessions will help you address your organization's specific needs. You are guaranteed to leave with new friends, new resources, new ideas and a renewed vision for your organization.

Proven Programs
Looking for ways to better serve your members? Look no further! Group leaders will showcase their top programs and walk you through development, implementation and outcomes so you can launch them in your area.

A Revitalized Group
Your members will thank you for attending AIA and bringing new program ideas to your area. They will recognize and applaud your commitment to continued growth.
